Amazing customer service
Amazing customer service from Winchester branch. Ordered a camera online but due to errors caused by the original shipping company, which resulted in my order being returned to LCE, the branch shipped again but used a different carrier and the camera arrived without issue in time for my daughter's birthday. Thank you!
